I am all about enjoying time outside this summer. Whether it’s hanging out by the pool or sitting out on the pier watching my husband teach my son how to fish, there is no better place to be right now. Though, every day can’t be a romp through relax-ville. Lately I’ve been busier than ever, and I spend my days running errands, writing, taking photos, while trying to keep my house presentable. My energy spikes in the morning after a cup of coffee, but I find myself ready for a nap at about 3 p.m. It never fails. That afternoon slump can only be cured by some caffeine and a sweet snack to enjoy on to go!

Meet my afternoon friends. When I was pregnant, I developed a strong relationship toward Snickers. I always had a bar in my bag or in my desk at work. Nowadays, I just love the SNICKERS® 2-to-go Peanut Butter Squared. They are so filling and give me what I need to make it through daycare pick up and dinner prep. It’s what I need to unwind after a long day. Though if you’re looking for a fun way to enjoy both sweet and salty flavors, try this Snickers® Peanut Butter popcorn recipe for a fun snack on the go!

I first hit Walmart for my ingredients. I grabbed two cold 20 oz Diet Dr Pepper (one of my favorites!) and two SNICKERS® Peanut Butter 2-to-go.

I started preparing the peanut butter squares for the food processor. I chopped each square into eighths.

Just in case you wondered what the inside looked like…

I used my food processor on the chop setting, and I let it run for a few seconds. I wanted the candy to stay chunky with lots of yummy texture.

I melted chocolate and poured out about eight cups of popped popcorn. Then, we got to work!

We drizzled melted chocolate while stirring, and then added the SNICKERS® Peanut Butter 2-to-go. I placed it in the refrigerator for thirty minutes or so, and I was then greeted with the perfect combination of salty, sweet, and peanut butter!

I adore snickers! I think they truly must be every pregnant woman’s bff (that’s when I ate like two a day… perhaps why I gained 70 lbs?). If only we had popcorn in Italy (it’s rare) I would be on this in a second!

You have a few favorite things on their.. Whenever i want something i go and grab a snickers.. whenever i want soda, i go and grab Diet Dr. Pepper… I would definitely try this recipe while watching a movie with the kids.. i am sure they would devour it all.

Snickers was my favorite candy bar when I was growing up! I haven’t had one in years, but I think you’ve convinced me because popcorn is one of my faves and I’ve never thought about joining the two together in a sweet salty (my kind of snack) marriage. I’m in love! Pinned! I hope you link up to the Pretty Pintastic Party with this one! 🙂

PS – I did melt some peanut butter last week and pour it over my air popped popcorn. I’m working on the recipe!

Oh gosh I just love Diet Dr. Pepper. It’s the only diet drink that tastes just like the original. When I moved up here to MI from OK I had the hardest time finding Dr. Pepper anywhere! Even worse, my beloved Diet. Thankfully I don’t drink it often, so when I do spot it, I grab a few bottles. This popcorn looks amazing. What a way to take something yummy and make it a bit healthy by adding to popcorn. I love snacking on popcorn. Practically guilt-free 😉
